Abraham Lincoln the Practical Mystic (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780548001608)

Abraham Lincoln the Practical Mystic is a book written by Francis Grierson that explores the spiritual beliefs and practices of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. The book delves into Lincoln's interest in spiritualism, his use of dreams and visions to guide his decisions, and his belief in the interconnectedness of all things. Grierson argues that Lincoln's practical mysticism was a key factor in his success as a leader during the Civil War and in his ability to navigate the complex political landscape of his time. The book draws on historical documents, personal accounts, and Lincoln's own writings to paint a portrait of a man who was both a pragmatic politician and a deeply spiritual seeker. Overall, Abraham Lincoln the Practical Mystic offers a unique perspective on one of America's most iconic figures and sheds light on the role of spirituality in the life of a great leader.1918.
